Released
yesterday (February 12th), "Van Morrison At The Movies: Soundtrack
Hits" is an entertaining compilation of some of the best moments of Van
The Man's career, which may surprise some as to how many key movie
songs he has contributed.
For Roger Waters fans, the album is significant as it includes him too!
Many of you will recall that Van did the vocals on Comfortably Numb
when Roger staged The Wall in spectacular fashion in the heart of
Berlin, in 1990. Recently, Martin Scorcese decided to use this very
performance in his critically-acclaimed movie "The Departed", which has
brought the song to a whole newgeneration of people.
From looking at the track listing, it is interesting to note how
many key moments are accented by Van's distinctive songs... and to note
that how many of the songs have become much better known than the
moviesthey appeared in.
1. Gloria (performed by Them) - from 'The Outsiders'
2. Baby Please Don't Go (performed by Them) - from 'Wild At Heart'
3. Jackie Wilson Said (I’m In Heaven When You Smile) - from 'Pope Of Greenwich Village'
4. Domino (Live) - from 'Clean & Sober'
5. Moondance (Live) - from 'An American Werewolf In London'
6. Queen Of The Slipstream - from 'Extreme Close-Up'
7. Wild Night - from 'Thelma & Louise'
8. Caravan (Live) - from 'The Last Waltz'
9. Wonderful Remark - from 'King Of Comedy'
10. Brown Eyed Girl - from 'Born On The 4th Of July'
11. Days Like This - from 'As Good As It Gets'
12. Into The Mystic (Live) - from 'Patch Adams'
13. Hungry For Your Love - from 'An Officer And A Gentleman'
14. Someone Like You - from 'French Kiss'
15. Bright Side Of The Road - from 'Fever Pitch'
16. Have I Told You Lately? - from 'One Fine Day'
17. Real Real Gone - from 'Donovan Quick'
18. Irish Heartbeat - from 'The Matchmaker'
19. Comfortably Numb (Live) (Edit) - from 'The Departed'
